Lyrics Music Box - Regina Spektor
Life
inside
the
music
box
ain′t
easy
The
mallets
hit,
the
gears
are
always
turning
And
everyone
inside
the
mechanism
Is
yearning
to
get
out
And
sing
another
melody
completely
So
different
from
the
one
they're
always
singing
I
close
my
eyes
and
think
that
I
have
found
me
But
then
I
feel
mortality
surround
me
I
want
to
sing
another
melody
So
different
from
the
one
I
always
sing
But
when
I
do
the
dishes
I
run
the
water
very,
very,
very
hot
And
then
I
fill
the
sink
to
the
top
with
bubbles
of
soap
And
then
I
set
all
the
bottle
caps
I
own
afloat
And
it′s
the
greatest
voyage
in
the
history
of
plastic
And
then
I
slip
my
hands
in
and
start
to
make
waves
And
then
I
dip
my
tongue
in
and
take
a
taste
It
tastes
like
soap
but
it
doesn't
really
taste
like
soap
And
then
I
lower
in
my
whole
mouth
and
take
a
gulp
And
start
to
feel
mortality
surround
me
I
close
my
eyes
and
think
that
I
have
found
me
But
life
inside
the
music
box
ain't
easy
The
mallets
hit,
the
gears
are
always
turning
And
every
one
inside
the
mechanism
Is
yearning
to
get
out
And
sing
another
melody
completely
Is
yearning
to
get
out
Is
yearning
to
get
out
Is
yearning
to
get
out
